Sharpness VI lifts the enchantment level cap so that swords can reach levels beyond the vanilla maximum.

What it does

Vanilla Minecraft caps how strong an enchantment can get on a piece of gear. This mod extends the level range for enchantments such as Sharpness, so a weapon can go past the usual limit without needing a command. Configuration changes take effect after the file is edited and the game restarts. Files are published for Fabric only, across 11 release versions 1.17.1 – 26.2, under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0.

Key features

  1. Higher enchantment levels

    Sharpness and similar enchantments can be raised past the standard cap, which allows much stronger weapons.

  2. Experience waste fix

    The mod addresses a wasteful experience cost that appears when enchanting a sword to high levels.

  3. Configurable behavior

    Options live in a configuration file, and changes apply once the file is saved and the game is restarted.

What the author says

Minecraft caps your gear's potential, preventing you from making that totally not overpowered Sharpness X sword. This mod fixes that, so you can waste all of your experience on that sword. Oh, and so you actually have something to do in the deep late-game.
